Guess what? I FOUND "HEATHER FROM CARD SERVICES!"

[Pab Sungenis]

Have you been getting those scam calls from "Heather From Card Services," offering to lower your card's interest rates? Or calls that your "car's warrant was about to expire?"

You know, all those calls from spoofed Caller ID numbers from the 506 area code? Or the new ones this morning from the "100" area code? The people using the "Do Not Call" list as a "please call me" list?

Well, I've tracked them down. Thanks to a gullible operator on the call this morning (thank you! Yes, I DO need to send you something), I have all the information you need to pursue these bastards to the ends of the earth.

The company responsible for this latest round of calls is:

Easy Financial Solutions
228 Park Avenue South Suite 22280
New York NY 10003
Phone Number: [phone]
Fax Number: [phone]
Website: http://www.ezfinancial.info/

The company operating the call center actually MAKING these calls is:

Financial Freedom Corporation of America
13405 Fawn Springs Drive
Tampa, FL 33626

If you've been getting these calls, this is all the information you need to go file a complaint against them with the FTC. The bottom company is responsible for all the calls. The top company is only responsible for the most recent "card services" calls.

Have fun!

62. This is much more complicated than "do not call"

I was recently beset by regular rude calls offering a warranty on a car. After starting with a star69 callback number I traced the call to a call center on the east coast. Thing is, the call center leases 'cutout' lines from an umbrella organization that is in california. Unable to find good contact information on these outfits (I did have company officer names) I finally found a blurb where a relative of two of the california company officers had been their council for a few years, but was now in Beliz running a 'service' to help US citizens offshore their money into Beliz. His cell phone was listed so I called him and spoke with him for about 45 minutes.

What I learned was interesting. These companies that are calling aren't actually selling anything. There is some sort of arrangement where they get a sort of advertising kickback when people do a search on their phone number. So apparently, their goal is to irritate people enough to get them to try and locate them by phone number. This practice was described at a couple of online sites and confirmed by the attorney as ongoing and legal. His father's company (I think it was really the atty's and the father was a figurehead) buys large numbers of phones and 'sublets' them to anyone who "wants a phone line but might have trouble getting one through the normal systems".

I *suspect* it is a coordinated effort originating at the level of the company originally leasing the lines; and that they are one of those "Make money from home with your computer" outfits most of us ignore. By doing it this way they are setting up a firewall between the do not call law and themselves by setting up a large number of disposable front groups that are easily startups (with the original leasing company's help) and shut downs.

[Laelth]

2. Good work. n/t

:dem:

-Laelth

[Warpy]

3. My last "Ha!" CLICK

seems to have gotten through to them. Or maybe an enterprising supervisor got around to checking things and found out I got rid of all charge and credit cards in 1991.

I haven't had one of those phone calls in over a week.

[CoffeeCat]

4. I love you man!

These people have been calling me for more than a year.

At first, I pressed "2" and asked to speak with a sales rep. I told them I wanted off of their list. They hung up.

They called back the next day. Again, I told them not to call. More hanging up.

So, then I started just hanging up on them. Doesn't work. They continue to call back...

I even started screwing with them...telling them that I did want consolidate my credit-card debt. Why
yes...I have 46 cards...and $400k in credit-card debt..all from buying Bubble Yum. I thought they
would think that I was a waste of time. No suck luck.

I get a call from them at least twice a week.

Nothing stops these bastards.

So, you have their contact info. I'm impressed.

Since we now have their contact information, can we call them and tell them to take
us off of their list? If we know who they are, this could scare them into not calling.

How did you get this info?

Do you realize how you have improved the quality of life for millions of Americans? You're right
up their with the guy who invented car cup holder!

[Pab Sungenis]

5. Very simple. Social engineering.

I got into a conversation with one of the operators and asked for the full company name and mailing address.

She asked "why? Do you need to send us something?" I said "yes." I didn't tell her it wasn't a payment but a cease and desist.

She provided the first company's contact information. Some digging and arm twisting led to the discovery of the number for the call center, and from there it wasn't that hard, with the law on my side, to find the people behind that number.

Oh, and the actual number for the four people in the call center is [phone]. Don't call it unless you want to be auto-added to their call list, though.

[nichomachus]

83. Oooh -- I'll call that number

From my Skype-out account which leaves no callback number

[Pab Sungenis]

7. Oh, and if you want to stop them from calling....

...here's the text of a letter to send. Just plug in your information in place of mine:

Financial Freedom Corp Of America
13405 Fawn Springs Dr,
Tampa, FL 33626

RE: Request for written "Do Not Call" policy and client information

To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to your firm's efforts to conduct business in Vineland, NJ, I received a phone solicitation on Tuesday, March 17, 2009, from a sales representative who refused to provide her name at 12:54 PM. During the conversation I requested that your sales agent provide me with a copy of your written "Do Not Call Policy," and to place my name and phone number on the "Do Not Call" lists of the companies listed above. I was disconnected by the operator upon making those requests.

The number contacted, which is the first number in the header of this letter, has been on the “Do Not Call” List since September 26, 2003.

This letter is to formally request a copy of your company’s “Do Not Call” policy, and to demand removal of the above-captioned telephone number from your solicitation lists immediately. The policy and written confirmation of the number may be sent to the address above. Failure to provide the policy and/or remove my number from all future solicitations by your company will place you in "knowing violation" of Federal law CFR 64.1200(e)(2)(i), the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA). Under the provisions of this law you are required to maintain a "Do Not Call List" and provide a written copy of your "Do Not Call Policy" on demand.

I look forward to your response.



Sincerely,

[dixiegrrrrl]

19. Important to note, re: the above letter.

At least in Ca. by law, any company that calls you has to send you their Do NOt Call Policy upon your request..it can be verbal request, and they HAVE to remove your phone number from their mailing list by your request.
Here's the fun part: if they fail to do so, you can take them to Small Claims court.
In YOUR district.
doesn't matter if they live across the country.
their failure to show in court automatically gives you judgement for the claims court limit.

I used to tell this to my nuisance call people, and tell them I made my living by getting those court judgements. I got the Do Not Call Policy within days, and never got called again.

There ARE people who make money from this law and from the related Do Not Fax law.

I am sure a google will turn up relevant laws in your area.
Hell, now that we are mostly un-employed, good way to make some money, yes?

[Jackpine Radical]

38. So if you actually get the judgment, how do you collect?

[Last Stand]

80. I believe your local AG's office is the answer. Usually $2k. nt

[Whoa_Nelly]

47. Also in CA, a prerecorded tele-call can NOT be the first contact

CA Civil Code:

Unsolicited prerecorded calls for the sale or lease of goods or services are banned unless a "live" operator first asks permission to play the tape. The operator must also tell the person who answers the phone the name of the caller and either the caller's address or telephone number. The operator must also ask if the person consents to hear the recorded message. Companies can use recorded messages when they contact established customers or if you have requested their call. (California Civil Code 1770(22)(A)).

[Downwinder]

55. Finally I found something I like better in Texas.

If the call costs you money, cell minutes of fax paper there is , I think, a $500.00 penalty, plus, get this, attorneys fees.

[GinaMaria]

13. You might need to call them daily

and ask if they have removed you from their list. A little taste of their own....

[Qutzupalotl]

17. ...at dinnertime! n/t

[GinaMaria]

33. Ha!

:hi: Good one.

[grantcart]

6. This will go to the top of the greatest page

Just got a call from those crooks again today.

[Pab Sungenis]

8. See my previous reply

with the text of a letter to send to them. If they call you after they receive this, then you've got grounds to sue.

[me b zola]

9. Kudos

These b@$tards have been calling us for a year. Time to shut them down.

[ColbertWatcher]

10. Ha, ha, ha! Bravo! Pab! Excellent work!

Wikiality

[lazyriver]

11. Bookmarked.

[hvn_nbr_2]

12. Betcha they'll have new phones and addresses within 48 hours.

I'd also bet that the "suite" number in the address is a mailbox.

[lurky]

14. These guys have really turned up the volume lately.

I used to get a call once a week, but now it's twice a day sometimes (like today, for instance). They have my cell number, too, which is infuriating.

59. Now Orlandoan...

I tried to find a home phone but alas it is unlisted apparently.

I suppose I could drive across town to figure out where she lives.

[Qutzupalotl]

18. I got a call from Heather...

I asked her what company she was with. Next thing I heard was a click.

I'm bookmarking this thread.

[zeemike]

35. the same thing happened to me.

I asked what the company name was and she started dancing all around it but I insisted rather sharply and she said "this conversation is over"

[Last Stand]

81. Next time, ask her what she's wearing and tell her to give you a minute to get comfortable.

Tell her you know what this call is "really about" and you're glad she called.

You get the idea. Turn the tables on them and have some fun.

[progressoid]

20. Are they the only group out there?

I haven't gotten one for at least a month but some of the calls I got did not mention a "Heather".

[Pab Sungenis]

22. They change the recording

but they all come from the same call center.

[progressoid]

31. Thnx. I'm keeping the info for the inevitable call that we'll get in the near future,

[SoCalDem]

21. I am so thankful for the "do not disturb" button on our phone

I just check my messages:)

[EFerrari]

23. You're good.

:)

[ohheckyeah]

24. I just a few minutes ago got one of the car

warranty calls from a 310 area code.

Is it from the same people I wonder.

[ddeclue]

44. 310 is Los Angeles - probably not the same. nt

[gratuitous]

25. Oh my

This was a day-brightener, and no mistake!

Victoria Mantell of Orlando, Florida, come on down!

[Dukkha]

26. in addition, do NOT order Acai Berry products EVER!

I work credit card disputes and we are getting THOUSANDS of disputes for this (thanks Oprah!) They offer a free sample then charge and ship $85.00 bottles to you every moth without authorization. They operate and bill under many different name variations too. The bottom line is there is NO such thing a free! If someone requests your credit card number for ANY reason, you will get charged.

[The Hope Mobile]

43. Yup - and they'll dodge you all day long too. They told us that they weren't able

charge us though they tried twice . . . they said to send a copy of the bank statement and they would refund in 10 days or less. That was 2 months ago. They ask for the card number for shipping. These guys are also in Florida. You also can't get a manager on the phone to save your life. Total obvious racket . . . but I bought it.:blush:

[ddeclue]

45. If it is a Florida Corporation you can look it up on line at sunbiz.org

if it is real that is.

A great tool for looking up people is zabasearch.com

There are other tools online at myflorida.com to research businesses and business licenses etc. and report fraud.

Doug D.

[The Hope Mobile]

92. Thanks. I'm sure these guys have already been reported like crazy

but I'm happy to do it again.

[catrose]

46. and I'm so sick

of their ads with the ugly stomachs (fat and thin).

[RebelOne]

71. Here's are a lot of complaints.

www.infomercialscams.com/scams/acaipure_complaints

[Liberal In Texas]

27. I've been getting them or similar calls, as soon as ask them if they've ever heard

of the No Call List they hang up.

They shouldn't be calling at all.

[rosesaylavee]

28. Now if we can just find out who 'they' are behind the calls re my car

warranty expiring, than I would be all set. My car is 12 years old - who knew the warranty didn't last that long?

[myrna minx]

37. I don't have a car, and yet they this is my last chance to protect my car warranty.

I loathe these "people".

[sarah FAILIN]

75. My 14 yr old gets those on her cell

And right now it's about the only calls so it really pisses her off when she hears the phone ring and she runs for it just to find out it's the car warranty thing..

[SmokingJacket]

70. It burns me up because there are some gullible people.

If my car wasn't 15 years old and second hand (never had a warranty) I might have had a moment of doubt. I can imagine being elderly and totally dependent on my car and terrifed of the warranty expiring.

[Hepburn]

29. Gawd.......I HATE these people!

I have -0- credit cards ~~ debit cards only ~~ and in the last week, I have had FIVE calls from these assholes!

Oooooooooh, am I gonna have fun with THIS info! :evilgrin:

[K Gardner]

30. I just got one, but it was pre-recorded and from 407 area code. Bookmarking this info !

[ddeclue]

41. What was the # - 407 is Orlando metro.nt

[K Gardner]

54. Good grief.. I went back and retrieved the # off of caller ID, and it doesn't even look like

a real phone number ! 407-000-1515

Was a recording that said "Call this number to get a better credit card rate", etc

[ddeclue]

58. There is no such thing as an 000 exchange in any area code

so YES they faked the number... why am I not surprised.

It ought to be a felony to fake your ID or hide it if you are making a business call.

[DireStrike]

32. OMG! Bookmarked! I love you!

I tried talking to the surly operators a few times but they usually hang up on me when it becomes clear I don't want any.

[Omaha Steve]

34. I turned in a complaint last week

When I asked the salesman just what do my records show, he hung up.

[myrna minx]

36. Thank you! They me call all the bloody time. K&R n/t

[Tab]

39. If I properly recall the nuances of the Do Not Call list - and a good tool to use

You are taken off the list within a certain number of days (some telemarketers update every 90 days, but it certainly can't be more than 90).

HOWEVER if you do business with some company they, and their associates are free to now call you for "business purposes".

The proper response when they call is to simply say "Take me off your call list", see if they respond - occasionally an "okay" but usually just a disconnect.

In either case, keep track of who called (as best as you can tell, including the number from caller ID if you have it) and when. After so many violations, if you keep a log, they are subject to a fine.

The tool is WhoCalled.US at http://whocalled.us/list (to get the lookup and mapping if you so choose, of who else got called from there today) and at just WhoCalled.us (http://www.whocalled.us), the main page, you can report it and see how many other people got calls from that number and how they describe themselves and what called ID showed.

WhoCalled.us seems to maintain the database and I believe publish it to the FCC, and if you are reporting a number that is already under investigation, the FCC may contact you for more information about the call.

Fight back!

[ddeclue]

42. The biggest problem is that so many of them fake their caller ID.nt

[upi402]

48. USbank harasses its customers

no matter how many times, and in what way, they continue to pester you - and rudely.

[MattBaggins]

51. Whoa. Thank you thank you thank you.

56. I've been getting them for "you car's warranty is about to expire"

The most recent one, I got a live person on the line, and when I told him I had a 1997 Buick, he called me a "liar" and hung up.

The area code was 064.
That's not valid in the US.

[trudyjh]

60. FTC

So, has the FTC ever done anything about these people or
others of their ilk?

[intaglio]

61. It might be an idea to contact the Portugese Embassy

The EU doesn't like these sort of scammers either

[Kind of Blue]

63. You are a gem, Pab Sungenis!

Sheesh. All this time we thought those Heather warranty calls were from our car company.

[republicansarewhores]

64. Think that shit's insane?

Look what I got in my email the other day... nothing like predatory lending, bold, brazen and no apologies...



RAW

[rox63]

65. Thank you for digging into this

These folks have been robo-calling my cell phone for months.

[ImOnlySleeping]

66. 506

For reference, the 506 area code is for New Brunswick. I get my calls (in Ontario) from Heather et al. from spoofed numbers in the 310 area code.

[The_Commonist]

67. The phone rang here the other morning...

(nobody ever calls here in the morning) and I said to sweetie "I'll bet that's Carol from Debt Solutions!"
I let it roll over to the voicemail.
When I checked it a little while later, sure enough, it was Carol from Debt Solutions!

The most annoying thing to me about these scammers is the way they lie when they leave a message.
"To follow up on our previous conversation..." or "You filled out a questionnaire..." or some bullshit along those lines.
No, asshole, I've never talked to you or filled out a questionnaire about ANYTHING.
For that matter, I don't even have a mortgage, a credit card or any debt whatsoever!!!

Capitalism is broken...

[varelse]

68. Thank you!

We're averaging a call a day from these people. :grr:

[pipi_k]

69. I get both of those all the time

but I have caller ID, and when I don't recognize a number I let the answering machine pick up.

These people are so damned stupid they just keep leaving the same message over and over again even though they've already left the same message fifty times and it's pretty obvious that they're talking to a machine. You would think they'd get the hint...

"Hmmmmm...we called this number fifty times. No actual person ever picked up. Each time we get an answering machine. What are the chances someone WILL EVER pick up? Near zero. Let's not waste time calling this number!"

They just don't get it, the idiots.

[eilen]

76. I get calls from all these people

debtsolutions
the car warranty people
barrier fucking windows
etc.

I am thinking of getting rid of my phone.

[emmadoggy]

77. I do the same thing...

I have caller ID and if the caller is not a family member, someone else I know, or a local caller, I don't pick it up. I get TONS of calls from "unknown name/unknown number" or "unknown name/<insert weird wacky number from far flung places here>.

I simply never pick them up. If they leave a message and it turns out it IS someone I need to deal with, then I can call them back.

The Do Not Call Registry is/was great, but it seems that the slimeballs have all figured out ways to work around it. At first our phone was blissfully quiet (right after the inital startup), but as the years have gone by it seems we are getting just as many annoying unknown callers as we were before. It's infuriating.

[arikara]

82. We use caller ID too, don't know the number then don't answer the phone...

if its a legitimate call they leave a message, if they don't leave a message or aren't someone I want to speak with I block their number and never hear from them again.

[chatnoir]

84. Sorry for sounding like the Dark Ages but

How do you go about blocking a number? Do you have to call the phone company or is it sth easily done like *69?

We already screen thru Caller ID and if its unknown we let the machine pick up but just yesterday we got 3 of these car warranty calls from the same 506 number.

[arikara]

95. Its a feature offered by our phone company

It would be worth checking to see if yours offers it too, its really handy for sure. And simple... *60 and follow the prompts.

[RaleighNCDUer]

87. Well, you never know -

you might just move and the telephone # will be transferred to someone who WILL pick up.

When it's a computer that's doing all the work, why would they care?

[Tommy_J]

72. Many thanks

We've had 3 calls in one evening. I've been fantasizing about getting this info.

[foxeyes2]

73. I am in love with you

I don't care if you are male or female I am in love. they have been driving me crazy for months so thank you so much.

[earth mom]

74. We just had one of those rat bastards call this morning at FIVE THIRTY AM!!! WTF!

I couldn't flippin believe someone was calling that early and my first thought was about my 85 year old MIL who hasn't been well. Luckily the rest of the family slept through it.

:grr:

[Pab Sungenis]

78. I'm putting together all the information you will need to sue them.

Right now, you can collect at least $1,500 in damages from them. The early call is $500.00, use of the robodialer is $500.00, and failure to properly identify themselves in the recording is another $500.00.

I'm putting together all the references you and anyone else will need to sue these bastards right now, and will be posting them to http://www.heatherfromcardservices.com in about 72 hours once the DNS entries go live.

Eventually, I'll start putting together boilerplate that can be adapted for people to use against this company in small claims court in your own county. And the further away from Florida that you live, the more likely you will be to get a judgment against you because they're not likely to travel to come to court in your county.

Now we start the process of taking these people down. Thanks to the people who've provided additional research here and on my own blog. We're ready to arm ourselves to take these bastards into court.

[dixiegrrrrl]

94. There are, or were, several web sites about telemarketing activists

with tons of links, forms, phone numbers....copies/links to Fed. and state law.
I had a big file in a now dead hard drive a few years back.

79. That's weird...the Fawn Springs drive address is a middle-class house

Scan up the thread for the name of the woman who operates this call center.

[RaleighNCDUer]

86. I've been getting those calls, but I just ignore them

88. Yes, I've gotten those calls several times, and they are annoying as all hell.

89. Thank you for the information.

One of the things that I found out through Global's 16 X 9, was that telemarketers can register to get the Do Not Call List

On 21 December 2007, Bell Canada was awarded a five-year contract to operate the National Do Not Call List (DNCL). As such, Bell Canada was to propose a rate structure for fees that telemarketers would pay to subscribe to the List.

Global 16X9 did a story called http://www.globaltv.com/globaltv/globalshows/16x9/video.html?maven_playerId=16x9extralargeplayer&maven_referralPlaylistId=931d9b82439189387845a195c926661d46f04df0&maven_referralObject=3228723|List Loophole>. It taken from Episode 109.

TrogL and I signed up all out numbers including all cell phones on this list. We were virtually guaranteed that we would have our numbers protected. One of TrogL's cell phones is a work phone and he is getting the calls on that cell. WE have had numerous "Heather" calls. I have put in several complaints regarding several telemarketing. I do not recommend signing up and wish that we never did.

91. That sounds like the same call center 'Hi, This is Rachel"

calls from twice a day up here. The funniest one I've heard, though not from Heather or Rachel's service, was a very heavy middle-eastern accent claiming she was Joyce trying to sell me something ...... I didn't get to that part. click.
